Wow...that's some crazy shit... Any idea if that's just a prototype or if those were actually distributed somewhere (like Japan)? How did you come across that page anyway?

It is no prototype, you could play it at least at japanese arcade.

I believe it is just an old one slot, with the attachment for the dual monitor arcade machines they have in japan (isn't that what they used to play 4 player Fu'un?)... not a sigle piece of hardware. I do realize the fact that I could be completely wrong though.

I guess answered my question before I could even post it.

Sweet. What was once only rumored to exist has just come closer to being confirmed... To my untrained eye, I'd say it looks pretty real, especially since you can kind of see the reflection of the photographer in the titleshot, which could mean it was taken at an arcade or in a cab...
Cool.

Is there a special Kizuna MVS cart then or does putting the cart in this MVS bring up the "Special Version" writing??

If someone has a cpu that can detect the text of the page (for instance... someone in japan), maybe they could email the person and find out what it's all about.

It was released on 1996.09.20, one week before the "regular" MVS Release of Fuu'un:STB

The Super Tag Battle cartridge remains the same, it's not a special version of the software. You need the special twin JAMMA extension connected to the MV-1B motherboard and then it's only a matter of DIP-switches and configuration.

i um...took the liberty of translating it, all on my own...

It is special version っ て thing, but basic game contents not to change, 4 human simultaneous plays of 2 human VS2 people,
It is the version where the cooperation play 2 is possible.
As for this version as for cassette itself it is the same as normal type, but
The mV of the MVS motherboard - connecting the sub board for the 1b and 4 people, when the DIP - it modifies the setting of the SW, it becomes this version.
As for the movement in specifications for these 4 person being not to be good, as for procurement it is difficult well enough, is.
When you aim toward the collection finished product of the MVS software, it becomes the dense Tsuga wall. <hr></blockquote>

apparently,

its the same game, and it uses a special add on for the mvs-1b.

which has allready been stated in this thread.

and its also a dense Tsuga wall...or something.

lol.

yea, i got one more post count as well so :p

Man, a setup like this would entirely blow away 4PL linked-up League Bowling.

<img src="graemlins/tickled.gif" border="0" alt="[Tickled]" /> It might actually make Fu'un:STB fun! <img src="graemlins/tickled.gif" border="0" alt="[Tickled]" />

I believe your right. Note there are two jamma connections. You could connect one game to two cabinets and play against each other??? Or, the fact that it has four control ports means you could hook up four home controllers to play on one cabinet??? Question though, if its four player why then is there only two "credit 00" on the screne shot. Maybe this confirms my first theory on two cabinets???
